High Chair K65
Alvar Aalto conceived the K65 in the 1930s as part of his broader inquiry into what furniture could be: democratic in spirit, honest in material, and shaped by the body rather than by convention. The result is a counter-height chair that has lost nothing to time.
The K65 is built around Aalto's patented L-leg, a form achieved by bending solid Finnish birch at a right angle without weakening the grain. That structural ingenuity is also the chair's defining visual gesture, lending the piece its characteristic lightness and precision. The low, gently curved backrest and integrated footrest reflect a quiet attentiveness to how people actually sit.
- Frame in solid Finnish birch
- Seat options include birch veneer, laminate, linoleum, fabric, and leather
- Stackable construction
- Designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek in the 1930s, continuously produced since
Artek, the Helsinki-based company Aalto co-founded in 1935, has produced the K65 without interruption, a continuity that speaks to the original design's completeness. It fits as naturally in a working kitchen as in a considered dining space.
